We've talked a lot about food & water in here but has anyone done medical supply preps? That is where I am lacking and I know I need a lot of stuff. One of my kids had a bad injury and had to go to the ER a few months ago and I sweat thinking about how I would have dealt with this if health facilities were overwhelmed or not available.
I am starting on stocking OTC drugs. Looking at doses per adult of acetominophen, ibruprofen, aspirin, antacids, anthihistamines and then dealing with getting non-prescription antibiotics etc. Also gauze and silver ion pads for burns, etc.
I like buying MRES
